// Examples:

// Create a simple array
$input = array(1 => 'red', 3 => 'green', 5 => 'blue', 7 => TRUE, 9 => FALSE, 11 => NULL);

// NOTE: If you have an array (look above) and your blacklist will look like this: array(TRUE, FALSE, NULL)
//          Filter will delete array keys with value TRUE, FALSE or NULL
$blacklist = array(TRUE, FALSE, NULL);

// Output is: Array ( [0] => red [1] => green [2] => blue )
print_r( reindex($input, $blacklist) );
